Chapter 1

"Madoka Amano!"

Madoka was yanked out of her deep sleep at the sound of her name being called. She jumped into a sitting position, papers going everywhere from her desk. She took a deep breath, trying to keep her heart from racing any longer.

Standing in front of her desk was her best friend and co-worker, Hikaru Hasama with two cups of coffee. Madoka glared at her while she set down the coffees.

Madoka and Hikaru knew each other for about 8 years, going to high school together and soon college. After the two had graduated, they both applied for secretary jobs for the largest stock company in Metal Bay City, Hagane Corporations. And for 2 years, the two have been secretaries for managers of each branch. For Hikaru, her boss was Kyoya. And for Madoka, her boss was Tsubasa.

"Can I help you?" Madoka asked with a raise of her eyebrows. "I'm a little busy with work."

"Yeah, cause you looked like you were working hard." Hikaru responded with a roll of her eyes. "Seriously, I'm surprised you were sleeping." She sat down on Madoka's desk, taking a sip of her coffee. "I got the coffee on the 8th floor. It's the best."

Getting up, Madoka pulled down her pencil skirt and picked up the papers that went flying. "You're an over achiever, Madoka. It's not like you to sleep at work. Unless you had an awesome night last night." Hikaru said with a wink.

"No I didn't sleep with anyone last night, Hikaru. You're such a pervert." Madoka replied, stacking her papers. After organizing her desk, Madoka smoothed down her brown hair that must have gotten messy in her short slumber on her desk.

"What?" Hikaru asked. "If I slept with someone, you'd be the first one I'd tell!"

"I didn't sleep with anyone, Hikaru!" Madoka groaned, placing more papers on her desk. "I haven't slept with anyone since…since-"

"Haru?" Hikaru pondered, peering at her best friend curiously.

"Don't say his name!" Madoka sat back down, immediately becoming uncomfortable at the mention of his name. Bad memories swirled up inside Madoka's head…All of the kisses, hugs, giving herself to him, was all for nothing… Shivering from the bad memories, Madoka shook her head. "I didn't sleep with anyone last night. I've just been stressed out about this CEO thing. It's an important interview for me and if I get to work for the CEO, I'd get a huge raise! I really need the money!"

"Oh right, right." Hikaru nodded, remembering the secretary opportunity for the CEO just opened up. "Because working on the top floor of this gigantic, 30 level building is a raise." Madoka rolled her eyes as Hikaru continued. "The old secretary was fired. What was her name? Chi Chi? Le Le?"

"Mei-Mei." Madoka answered, crossing her legs. "We went to high school with her, remember? She was in our cheerleading squad."

"She was?" Hikaru pondered that for a few moments before shaking her head. "Nope. Don't remember her at all."

"What is this really about, Hikaru? Isn't Kyoya, your boss, supposed to see you soon?" Madoka thought aloud as she began to type away on her computer.

"He can wait." Hikaru brushed him off, and got up from the desk, a wide smile on her lips. "I'm taking you to the new club down the street tonight. It's supposed to be amazing. Good drinks, great dancing, sexy guys! It's gonna be so much fun!" Jumping up and down, Hikaru gasped. "And I'm totally setting you up! You are getting screwed tonight, that's an order! I'm picking you up at 8!"

"Hikaru! It's Thursday, not Friday! We have work in the morning! Not to mention my interview!" Madoka called after Hikaru who ran down the office hall and towards the elevator. "Hikaru!" She scoffed as Hikaru gave her thumbs up before entering the elevator.

Groaning, Madoka sat back down at her desk. Rubbing her temples softly, Madoka sighed. What if I don't get this job? How am I supposed to pay for my apartment, clothing, and food? I'm in so much debt.

"Looks like someone needs coffee." A deep, soft voice spoke up in front of her making her jump up softly.

She looked up, finding her boss, Tsubasa standing in front of her desk with a small smile. Straightening up, Madoka coughed awkwardly. "I-I'm sorry, Tsubasa. I've just been having a hard, stressful day, I understand if-"

"Madoka, it's fine, really." Tsubasa smiled, setting down his planner that Madoka always wrote in when they needed to go to important meetings. "We need to attend a big meeting with all of the bosses of each branch and the CEO. You want the job for Mr. Hagane, right? Impress him by taking excellent notes!" Tsubasa walked into his office before calling over his shoulder. "It's going to be a great day, Madoka! I just know it!"


"Have you got the planner?" Tsubasa asked nervously as the two rode the elevator up to the 30th floor of Hagane Corporations.

Madoka nodded and held it up. "I need to take amazing notes for tomorrow's interview."

Laughing, Tsubasa nodded. "Good. I have to say, if you get this job I'm gonna miss you as my secretary. You were amazing as my assistant!"

Smiling, Madoka replied. "It's not like I'm working somewhere else. I'll just be a few floors up."

"Have you ever met Mr. Hagane?"

Shaking her head, Madoka shrugged. "I guess I've never needed to see him. I've just worked on the little things of the company not the big things that involved the CEO."

"I actually went to high school with him. Total football player. #1 Quarter back. Females state that he's gorgeous. You're single, right? Now's your chance to impress the business guy." Tsubasa smiled before walking out of the elevator. "Now, let's get this meeting over with."

They walked into the large conference room with most of it already filled up with branch managers and a few receptionists. The long, oak table lay right in the middle of the room, with comfy looking, navy blue seats accompanying. To the front of the room was a large, flat screen TV. And to the side, were large windows that showed the beautiful view of Metal Bay City. Madoka, feeling a bit intimated by this room's size, quickly trailed behind Tsubasa who took a seat at the end of the table.

Right when they sat down, everyone instantly became quiet, making it seem like someone very important walked in. The door to the conference room opened, and he walked in. The moment Madoka laid eyes on him, she lost her breath completely. He was insanely good looking. He had to be about 6'2 and well-muscled. Gulping, Madoka's eyes trailed down at his suit, noticing that it was tailored nicely and fit him well. He was wearing expensive looking shoes, black dress pants, and a tucked in white button-up, a black vest over the white button-up and a black suit jacket over the black vest. He wore a red tie and a red handkerchief that was tucked nicely into his outside chest pocket of his suit.

He had gorgeous golden eyes, tan skin, and tousled dark red hair.

"Wow," Madoka said quietly, her heart racing against her chest.

Madoka caught the eye of Hikaru who was sitting across from her, next to Kyoya. She slyly pointed to Mr. Hagane with wide eyes and gave Madoka thumbs up while mouthing 'HOT.'

He stood at the front of the room and waited for the men to quiet down. Every woman in the conference room was already quiet, stopping everything they were doing to look at him. Including Madoka. But for some reason, he didn't seem to notice all of the attention the females were giving him. Instead, he had a very serious expression on his face, ready to start this meeting.

Madoka, completely unaware that she was still staring at him, dropped her pen loudly. She mentally screamed the moment his golden eyes landed right on her. Blushing deeply, Madoka quickly bent down to pick it up and avoided the intense gaze of the CEO.

How am I supposed to be his secretary with him right in the other room? I won't be able to focus!

"The purpose of this meeting is to make sure each branch of this business is not failing their duty."

Madoka crossed her legs at the sound of his deep and authoritative voice, giving her an immediate, strong feeling of ecstasy. Rubbing her lips together, Madoka stared at the planner on the table, too scared to even meet his tempting eyes.

He probably didn't even notice me! Madoka told herself, trying to stop herself from acting like a love-struck little girl. He probably has a lover. How can someone like him not have a lover?

And so Madoka sat through the entire meeting, completely and utterly sexually frustrated by the man conducting the meeting. She took notes for her boss Tsubasa who seemed to notice how uncomfortable she was the entire time. He glanced over at her occasionally with a worried expression but she would just nod to him, completely quiet.

The moment the meeting was over, Madoka shot up from her desk and tried to walk out as quickly as possible to freeze the moment Tsubasa called for her.

"Madoka, do you want to come here for a sec?" Tsubasa smiled, staying behind while everyone left. "You have to meet the CEO."

OH GOSH. Madoka screamed inside her head but nodded to her boss before walking to him and Mr. Hagane slowly.

She chewed on the bottom of her lip nervously as she looked up at Mr. Hagane who was looking down at her with a slight smile.

"This is my secretary, Madoka Amano. Ms. Amano is going to have an interview with you tomorrow about the opening secretary job for you, Gingka." Tsubasa smiled, gesturing towards the 23 year old who stood completely still.

Stop chewing your lip, its unprofessional! Madoka scolded herself but stopped the moment Gingka's golden eyes landed down at her lips and then slowly look back up at her, a fiery emotion burning in his eyes.

"It's nice to meet you, Madoka Amano." Gingka stuck out a large hand, shaking it with her small one. "I'm Gingka Hagane."

"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Hagane." Madoka spoke, her voice weak and shaking slightly.

Aw man, I'm totally ruining my chance! Madoka thought, chastising her stupid feelings.

"I look forward to meeting with you tomorrow." Gingka smiled, sending butterflies down the woman's stomach. "Tsubasa tells me you are an excellent secretary."

"Thank you." Madoka spoke up, more clearly and loudly.

"Well, I need to go but it was very nice meeting you, Madoka." Gingka nodded a goodbye, grabbing a few papers and walking out of the conference room without a look behind.

"You guys will get along." Tsubasa commented as the two made their way out of the conference room and towards the elevator.

Glancing over to the large office that belonged to Gingka and was down the hall, Madoka pushed her hair back behind her hair in a nervous way. "I hope so."
